Most of it works fine - the font path is found, the fsSpec is

But FMActivateFonts returns an error code of -39...

According to the Macerrors.h, -39 is an eofErr... Which is just plain
weird. It tends to suggest there's something wrong with the font: but
the font works fine if you plonk it in the Fonts folder.

Something broken in OS X 10.2.3, perhaps? Or, more likely, something
I'm doing wrong?

Is this a font suitcase you're working with? If so, my best guess is that the font has a resource fork that is not being properly copied into your application bundle when you're doing your build. Project Builder, for some reason, does not copy resource forks when copying files into the resources folder of a bundle. I've had this problem in the past (spent a few hours trying to figure out why MLTE wouldn't load a SimpleText file with style resources) and have gotten around it by creating a shell script phase that uses /Developer/Tools/CpMac to copy the file properly.
